THE ROLE:

AMD SerDes Technology team is looking for an Engineer with an obsession with firmware. As part of the role, this engineer will work closely with other firmware engineers, developers and architects for developing low-level firmware that interfaces with advanced photonic integrated circuits (PICs), analog/digital control loops, and optical subsystems.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Design, develop, and debug embedded firmware for controlling silicon photonic components (e.g., modulators, photodetectors, heaters, and tunable filters).
• Interface with hardware teams to define control and monitoring requirements.
• Implement algorithms for calibration, feedback control loops (e.g., thermal tuning), and signal optimization.
• Integrate firmware with test and measurement systems for validation and production.
• Collaborate with software engineers to ensure seamless communication between firmware and higher-level software layers
